The inn is divided into four types of decoration: low-end, medium, high-end and luxury.
Each decoration style requires a different amount of spiritual stone consumption.
Lin Jichen chose luxurious decoration and spent 200,000 low-grade spiritual stones to build his grand inn into a magnificent inn, as luxurious as Zuixian Tower.
As soon as it was completed, it attracted a large number of players to stop and watch.
Players who thought it was an official inn run by the imperial court suddenly discovered the plaque on this inn: Fuqiang Inn.
Although the name of this inn is common enough, it makes players think of one person immediately.
That's Lin Jichen!
The names of several of Lin Jichen's stores are very random, such as Harmony Pharmacy, Integrity Auction House, Friendly Equipment Store, and Free Pet Store.
It's all based on China's core values. I guess I'm too lazy to think of a name and just chose it casually.
But it has also become the style of Lin Jichen's store. Now when they see the words "Fu Qiang Inn", everyone immediately thinks, is this a new store opened by Lin Jichen?
Just when I was thinking about it, everyone saw Lin Jichen walking out of the store, and this was a real blow.
Lin Jichen saw so many people gathered outside, so he simply let the inn open for business.
He didn't bother to hold an opening ceremony. The inn didn't need to deliberately publicize or create any gimmicks.
The inn has a very stable flow of people and a stable income.
Lin Jichen just posted full-frequency advertisements on the public screen of the game every hour as usual.
The management of the inn will be left to a few newly recruited NPCs.
After finishing it, Lin Jichen went to the palace to buy a few more shops.
He still has more than 6 million spirit stones in his pocket, plus the remaining 50,000 reputations. After clearing the Snowy Secret Realm, he gained another 20,000 reputations.
He could buy three gold shops, but he didn't want so much money to depreciate in his pocket.
After traveling on a familiar road, we arrived outside the palace. Many players were queuing up, and Jiang Luoyu was among them.
Seeing Lin Jichen coming over, Jiang Luoyu joked: "Boss Lin is here to buy goods again?"
Lin Jichen walked over and said with a smile: "Isn't Boss Jiang here to purchase goods too?"
"I don't have this ability, I don't have enough reputation, and I just got tens of thousands more secrets the day before yesterday, so I came here to see Boss Lin pick out the remaining shops and pick them up like treasures." Jiang Luoyu teased.
The two of them burst into laughter.
"Okay, I'll go queue up first and chat later." Lin Jichen said.
"Well, go ahead."
Lin Jichen walked towards the crowd behind.
Most of the people here are familiar faces, and many are old acquaintances from the last auction.
Also, those who can come to the City Hall to buy shops are naturally rich people in the game.
The people queuing up in front of me, waiting to enter the palace, must be going shopping.
Sure enough, rich people will not just keep their money in their pockets, but will try their best to use money to make money.
Lin Jichen's arrival also surprised them, but everyone quickly reacted and took the initiative to say hello.
Lin Jichen, who is number one on the wealth list, gained another 20,000 reputation points the day before yesterday. He must be planning to buy a new store.
This makes many people envious. Due to the prestige limit, they can only buy small shops, and very few can buy medium-sized shops.
As for large-scale stores, they are even rarer.
I can’t say there are none, but there are very few.
After all, the six newly updated secret realms will receive reputation rewards for the first pass. The reputation will be different depending on the difficulty.
Seeing Lin Jichen coming, everyone knew without guessing that he must be here to buy another gold store.
Many people are envious and jealous.
He even asked Lin Jichen during the greeting if he was interested in selling a large store to them, and the price was easy to negotiate.
It's a pity that Lin Jichen didn't agree at all and just talked about it and put it off.
Just when Lin Jichen was about to queue up, a patrolling guard chief came over and recognized Lin Jichen at a glance.
He immediately came over and said respectfully: "Master Lin, are you going to enter the palace?"
Lin Jichen was stunned, but nodded.
Upon hearing this, the captain of the guard immediately invited: "Why do you have to queue up now that you are here? Come on, I will take you in personally."
After saying that, he scolded the guards next to him: "You guys are really blind. Next time you see Young Master Lin entering the palace, let him go immediately. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" The guards obeyed one after another.
The captain of the guard turned and continued to greet Lin Jichen with a smile, "Master Lin, please, I will take you there."
Lin Jichen was not polite and walked out of the team and said, "Thank you very much."
"It should, it should." The captain of the guard smiled even more and began to lead the way, and Lin Jichen followed him into the palace.
"Hey! Why? First come, first served, do you understand? You are using power for personal gain." A player who couldn't stand it stood up and accused.
That person was also familiar to Lin Jichen. He was Wang Fuchun, the fake rich accountant who had a conflict with Lin Jichen at the auction.
Ever since Lin Jichen was rejected from buying a store at the last auction, Wang Fuchun has been grieving, but the idea of buying a store has always existed.
He is also eager to buy a store to make a profit and subsidize the company's loopholes.
After constant questioning and constant filling of glasses, someone was actually fooled and sold some reputation to him.
Wang Fuchun used his reputation to buy several shops, but he had no business acumen, so he could only rent them out.
Unexpectedly, he actually made a lot of money. Although this was nothing compared to the money he misappropriated from the company, it was at least a good direction and start.
So he continued to use this method, preparing to become a landlord, buying more shops and then subletting or reselling them.
As long as the quantity is large enough, it won't take long to get your money back.
It's a pity that he doesn't even think about how reputation can be bought so easily.
Moreover, he spent tens of millions to buy these reputations, plus the consumption of spiritual stones to buy the shop, and Xiao millions went out again.
All in all, his hole is getting bigger and bigger.
But Wang Fuchun doesn't care so much, at least he knows that it is better than spending money all the time.
Buying and selling stores is at least an absolutely profitable business.
This time he also spent a lot of effort and money to buy a few hundred new reputation points and planned to buy another small shop.
Seeing Lin Jichen chatting animatedly with his new 'goddess', he became even more furious.
Ever since Wang Fuchun saw Jiang Luoyu, he regarded her as his goddess and always wanted to pursue her.
Unfortunately, he never succeeded. He was even blocked outside the city by the masters of the Moon Shadow Guild and beat him up severely. Then he was killed back to Novice Village after making harsh words and harassing him.
Only then did Wang Fuchun give up the idea, and he knew it in his heart. He also knew that he was not worthy of others, let alone trying to impress them with money.
Although he doesn't dare to harass Jiang Luoyu anymore, it doesn't mean that his evil intentions are dead.
Old and new grudges welled up in his heart, and Wang Fuchun refused to let Lin Jichen enjoy this privilege no matter what he said.
